My 30 yr old niece just had this surgery in October, she went home that afternoon.... We had her up and walking around that evening.... nothing strenuous for a couple of weeks. She had images of being waited on hand and foot... NOT!!!! LOL meals yes, drinks no... the doc said she should get up and move around frequently, much to her dismay :wink: We even let her fold her own laundry after a couple of days, we put it away. LOL Laprascopy is wonderful!!! Prayers being said that your DS's surgery goes the same as hers!!! :D:D:D
